Live streaming and online engagement go beyond just broadcasting services. When you're working to keep your congregation connected—whether they're at home or on-site—using advanced features like multi-channel audio, automated subtitles, and QR code integration can significantly enhance the worship experience. These tools help you cater to different language groups, improve accessibility, and even make it easier for viewers to take action during the service.

Multi-channel audio is a powerful tool for improving engagement, especially in multilingual communities. For example, if your church offers live translations, you can embed those translated audio feeds into your SDI stream and make them available to viewers in different languages, like Spanish or Ukrainian. By setting up web presets to route these audio channels to specific online audiences, you can ensure your content is accessible to everyone, no matter where they are or what language they speak.

Adding subtitles to your live streams is a simple yet effective way to improve accessibility. Automated subtitles can be enabled for any web channel and will appear in your embedded web players. This is especially useful for hearing-impaired viewers or for those who prefer reading along. Just be aware that this feature only works on embedded players and doesn’t extend to social media platforms, so keep that in mind when planning your broadcast.

QR codes can now be integrated directly into your live stream, allowing viewers to interact without needing to manually scan the code. Resi’s QR click technology automatically creates clickable links, making it easier for your online audience to give, request prayer, or access additional content directly from the video player. It’s a simple way to drive engagement while keeping the experience seamless and connected.

These features make a big difference in creating a smooth, inclusive, and engaging worship experience for both your in-person and online communities.
